The Notebook
let me just say that im only on page 14 of The Notebook and i already am truly amazed by it..i guess because i can relate to what the author is saying and wow its just so beautfully written In some ways i feel like he took the words right out of my brain, the words that i had kept in my mind and always wanted to express to someone but never have. I guess because im afraid of what theyll think of me and i know it sounds stupid but somehow reading this book makes me feel better to know. Maybe its because i know that someone out there, fake or real, feels the same way. Heres some quotes from it that i love:
"I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough."
"An ordinary beginning, something that would have been forgotten had it been anyone but her. But as he shook her hand and met those striking emerald eyes, he knew before he'd taken his next breath that she was the one he could spend the rest of his life looking for but never find again."
"New Bern was haunted now. Haunted by the ghost of her memory."
"My daddy used to tell me that the first time you fall in love, it changes your life forever, and no matter how hard you try, the feelin' never goes away. This girl you been tellin' me about was your first love. And no matter what you do, she'll stay with you forever."
All the above quotes i can relate to and i must say that im really looking forward to reading the rest of this book. In fact, i think i'll probably finish it in the next 2 days or so.
back to reading, xo
